What is Duval virtual academy

Duval Virtual Instruction Academy (DVIA), is a Kindergarten – 12th Grade Duval County Public School (DCPS). We provide a comprehensive option for families who choose to approach education within their own home. With the flexibility to serve individual needs, we bring the innovation of 21st century learning to you. Traditional home schooled students may take courses through our part-time program. DVIA also has a fulltime student option, which culminates in a DCPS high school diploma from the comfort of a student's home.
